4 Access point - Definition A name, term, code, etc. under which a bibliographic record may be searched and identified [in addition to free-text searching] Examples of common access points are: title, subject, personal author, uniform title, geographic name, corporate name
5 Main and added entries “In Part II the rules are based on the proposition that one main entry is made for each item described, and that this is supplemented by added entries.”
6 Main entry “The complete catalogue record of an item, presented in the form by which the entity is to be uniformly identified and cited. The main entry may include the tracing(s). See also Added entry.” tracing(s)Added entry Source: AACR2R - Since the days of manually prepared cards, it has been professional practice to designate one of the access points as chief access point or main entry
7 Added entries “An entry, additional to the main entry, by which an item is represented in a catalogue; a secondary entry” AACR2 The aim of added entries is to provide access to bibliographic descriptions in addition to the access provided by the main entry.
8 Do we need main entries in the online environment? Yes – they support the standard convention for the way a bibliographic item should be cited. Yes – they collocate items in the catalogue. Yes – they provide immediate information about authorship (i.e., primary responsibility for the intellectual content of the item). Yes – they indicate the most prominent role of a given individual or body (e.g., a performing musician versus the composer of a piece of classical music).
